Custom Clear Headlight....LOSER EBAYER

Well, I ordered some OEM Civic headlights from a "reputable" E-Bayer, that said the OEMS were removed as soon as the car was purchased, and that they were in MINT condition.. No leaks, scratches, etc....

Well...My goal was to order these from this guy so that I can clear them, while keepking my stock headlights intact, just in case. Well, when I removed the Left headlight from the box, I noticed the ***** had sent me a damaged light. For those of you that have cleared your own lights, you probably noticed the three white plastic "tab/clip" things that hold the reflector housing in the light. They allow a certain amount of pivet for adjustment of thelight. Well, one of these things was completely broken off. Thre reflector housing just moves around freely! I am SOOO pissed... Anyway, I am attempting to resolve this amicably with the seller, but so far he has been unresponsive. What a D**K..

What I am asking then, is looking at my pictures, some of you that may have attempted to clear your headlights and ABSOLUTELY butchered them, I would appreciate it if you could possible hook me up with one of the plastic pieces. See, HONDA does not sell this part, as the lowest breakdown item is the headlight assembly itself. The internals of the headlight are NOT replaceable. Again, before you throw your old headlight away, I may want to take you up on this small piece. See pictures below...

another negative outcome in the world of eBay. Don't worry they're not all like this. Just gotta be a smart bidder, (sellers can be just as smart too :thedevil[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Actually, the dood had 20+ positive feedbacks....So go figure....The only negative feedback was about holding on to the money too long.. Ebay has a FRAUD protection program, but I have to wait to try and resolve this peacefully. Based on the lack of replies I know how this is going to end up.. I have 26 feedback ratings, ALL positive, and this is the ONLY transaction that I have ever purchased that went sour!! So much for the streak of good transactions!! I still hope that somebody out there is ready to trash their oems cuz they screwed up em bad, and wouldn't mind hooking me up with this little white piece! DAMN that loser! Damn him![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] Hey, EBAY Loser - [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]YOU

I am seriously considering that...

I know this sounds terrible,[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG] but if anyone crashed their Civic, and ruined the headlight, this piece might be intact....Let me know....

GAWD I sound desperate.....I am just SOOO pissed.....
